I was Mordred writes, "I've been out of work for a while now... however, every cloud must have a silver lining. Tell us your stories of the upside to unemployment."
You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

A view from the other side of the desk...
A friend of mine worked in a Job Centre in Lancaster for a few years after Uni.
Perhaps inevitably, as familiarity breeds contempt, he developed some fairly robust views on the moral character of many of his 'clients'. I challenged him; surely many of them were legitimate jobseekers who'd been dealt a bad hand and deserved state help to get them back on their feet?
'I don't really care whether they're legitimate or not, I just wish the drunks would stop pissing themselves on the chairs'.
Fair enough.
